A race today
(This is the first post that I’m actually writing in WordPress. It’s all so new and exciting!
Today was the Spring Fling 5K at Sarrett Nature Center near our home. It was COLD (below 30 when we left the house) but the sun shone brightly and the birds sang to us as we strode […]

Thank you, Fiona Apple
To keep in mind the next time your pouty inner child wants to stop your workout early:
I am likely to miss the main event
If I stop to cry and complain again
So I will keep a deliberate pace
Let the damned breeze dry my face
Ooooh mister wait until you see
What I’m gonna be
I’ve got a plan, a […]

I’m losing the battle
According to my mom, the scourge first reared its ugly head when I was three. I’ve been fighting it valiantly ever since.
Now, 40 years later, I must admit I am losing the battle.
The grey hair is winning.
ARRGH!
If L’Oreal can’t save me, what can?

For your listening enjoyment
William Shatner. Has Been. Honest. Trust me.

I’ll be gone…
I’ll be away from here for a few days.
We just found out that my children’s father — my friend, my ex-husband — has passed away in his sleep.
Please keep my kids, Rose and Aaron, in your thoughts.

Fear
A couple of women that I see at the club regularly asked me if I’d like to start running long distances with them on Saturdays. I was flattered, but I declined. I’m so freaking slow, I wouldn’t be able to keep up with them.
Now, I know that a surefire way to get faster is to […]

All of April — gone?
My host’s server had a crash and finally my site is back up. But it looks like I’ve lost the entire month of April! Curse me for not backing up my own files, too.
Added later: Wait! No, nope…they’re here! Whew!

A revelation
After 69 weeks of regular, vigorous exercise, (holy shit! 69 weeks?! Go me!) I just figured something out today.
My legs do not like it when I work out in the evening and then again in the early morning.
Ugh! They feel like LEAD today!
See, as soon as I started the 2-a-day last year, I did […]
